For 12 years, a mother of two disguised her face, and no one knew what she looked like. It all transpired until one day when she decided to remove her disguise and reveal a horrific fact about her husband to everyone. What had the woman been hiding all this time?
At the age of 28, the life of Saundra Crockett, a mother of two, took a horrific turn. Everything in the woman’s life was normal, as she raised her two children with her husband. Instead, her husband began to act suspiciously after a while.
Saundra’s spouse had started to physically and mentally abuse her, causing her great anguish and injury over time. The woman chose to remain silent and conceal her wounds under a mask. All of this happened until the woman could no longer bear the anguish and went to the hospital.
The woman’s face was so damaged by her husband’s beatings that the wounds on her face caused an infection that began to consume her tissue.
They were startled when she arrived at the hospital and the doctors examined her. Due to the virus, the woman had only three days to live. Instead, she lived thanks to the woman’s inner fortitude and the efforts of medics.
She was strong once she recovered and was able to save herself and her children from her husband’s cruel behavior.
Saundra chose to hide her terribly impacted face from the traumas she was forced to after the dark period she had gone through. He took this decision because he was afraid of what other people might think and decided that wearing a mask every time he went out in public would be the best way to protect himself.
She did this until one day she met Deborah Alessi, who had also suffered horrendous violence at the hands of the man next to her and had formed a non-profit organization for women harmed by men. This group assists women who have been the victims of domestic violence.
Deborah assisted Saundra to her feet, and Deborah’s husband, a surgeon, gave her a free facial contouring operation so she could open her left eye and eat normally.
Saundra is currently content and has no concerns about revealing her genuine self while also assisting other victimized women.
